Love The Skin You’re In. #SeetheRealMe with Azure Antoinette

Clean & Clear, the skin care brand, recently launched a new campaign called #SeetheRealMe. The campaign is aimed at inspiring teenage girls to “reveal their true selves,” and not let their appearances or imperfections define them.

This video, featuring poet and writer Azure Antoinette, offers an impactful message, along with a sales pitch for its product. And we’re okay with that.

According to the brand, 75% of teen girls want to be seen, but are afraid of being judged. “It isn’t easy being a girl in an age when vanity and social media reign supreme, and where so many people judge you.”

Azure Antoinette’s meaningful prose offers a message of individuality – how the distinct imperfections of each girl are what make her special, and that by embracing who you are, you can be comfortable in your own skin.
